Unique technology for high pressure capabilities Milestone synthWAVE features the unmatched Single Reaction Chamber (SRC) patented technology that ensures scale, reaction screening, highest temperature and pressure. It is able to handle single or multiple reactions at temperatures up to 300 °C and pressures up to 199 bar. Incredibly easy to use, the synthWAVE with SRC technology allows the chemist to run large-scale batch and parallel reactions like never before. Small-scale synthesis methods are easily transferred to the SynthWAVE.

Magnetron Waveguide Reaction chamber Stirrer Read brochure Ask for a virtual demo New horizons in microwave chemical synthesis SRC Technology Milestone’s unique Single Reaction Chamber (SRC) technology overcomes the limitations of current microwave synthesis instrumentation. A PTFE lined, 1 L stainless steel reaction chamber serves also as microwave cavity. The design of the microwave source perfectly match the cavity shape for optimum microwave distribution and fast, even heating. The chamber is prepressurized with gas to prevent boiling of the solution, and is equipped with mechanical and magnetic stirrers. The microwave cavity is water cooled, which greatly reduces reaction cooling time and increases productivity. Safety Like all Milestone products, the synthWAVE has been designed with operator safety of paramount importance. A thick acrylic shield surrounds the work area, and it lowers into position automatically as the chamber is closed. A microwave run cannot be started unless the chamber clamp is in position, and the clamp cannot be released until the chamber is cool, and pressure has been released. The PID controller continuously monitors temperature and pressure, instantan

How the synth WAVE works Acrylic safety shield Overhead stirrer In-situ sampling Easily and conveniently sample reaction products at any time during the experiment. Gas outlet Gas inlet Analog pressure gauge 15-place rack Exhaust system Temperature sensor Clamps PTFE 1 L vessel Dewar flask Control terminal RACK AND VIALS Reactions can be carried out directly in the 1L PTFE vessel, or in multiple vials. Vials are available in glass (disposable), quartz or PTFE, fitted with loose PTFE caps to ensure pressure equalization. Available rack configurations include 4, 5, 15 and 22 positions. The synthWAVE sample racks fit easily on a balance, so reagents can be weighed directly into vials already loaded into a rack. No vessel assembly or disassembly is required, and with the disposable glass vials, no cleaning step is needed, greatly increasing work efficiency. FASTER SCREENING Multiple reactions are carried out simultaneously under exactly the same temperature and pressure conditions - even using different solvents. Quickly and easily evaluation of different catalysts, solvents and reaction conditions. OPERATE IN MODIFIED CONDITIONS Simply add an inert gas to achieve an inert environment.
